YOKO & YOKO+ | User's manual 4
The YOKO/YOKO+ interacts with any computer as a joystick (HID). Being
a joystick makes it compatible with any flight simulation software. Below,
you have a general scheme for setting up your YOKO/YOKO+ with the
most popular flight simulation software: MSFS, PreparD, and X-Plane.
4. BASIC CONFIGURATION
MSFS
If you own a YOKO+, your device is ready to be used in MSFS. If you
have a YOKO, don't worry. Assign the buttons and axis inside the controls
menu, and it will be ready to be used.
Finally, restart MSFS and verify that the device is configured correctly.
Prepar3D
Open PreparD and go to the controls menu. Inside, select the 'YOKO/
YOKO+' from the devices list. Assign the buttons and axis as you please.
Then calibrate the device following the instructions.
Finally, restart PreparD and verify that the device is configured correctly.
X-Plane
Your YOKO/YOKO+ only needs to be calibrated inside X-Plane since
buttons are automatically assigned. Open X-Plane, go to Configuration\
Joystick and follow the calibration steps for your your device.
Finally, restart X-Plane and verify that the device is configured correctly.
If you own a YOKO, you must calibrate your device using
Windows Calibration before configuring it inside your
preferred flight simulation software.
